Marriott-Slaterville History January 2010 A Public Hearing was held on January 19, 2010, by the Planning Commission. Public comment, in support of or opposition to, the ratification and adoption of the Official Zoning Map of Marriott-Slaterville City, Utah was invited. The map was prepared by Jones and Associates Consulting Engineers dated January 2010. At the January 21, 2010, Council Meeting, Ordinance 2010-01, concerning the Official Zoning Map for the city, was discussed. The original zoning map was adopted in 1999. Over the years numerous amendments to the map have been made, and may or may not have been properly designated. The City desires to zone the parks and certain other property, primarily governmental, as open space. The new map would also bring it into further compliance with the General Plan, to effectuate current zoning policies and practices. This resolution would ratify the Official Zoning Map. The Planning Commission reviewed this updated map and recommended approval. After discussion, the Ordinance was unanimously passed.
